elcee,
i hate to see postings like this...and agree that we have enough to deal with without having to deal with that too.

first of all, i dont think the lapse in treatment will effect her to much. especially a couple of days. andy is currently on a 4 week break due to complications, although from what ive learned, this is pretty lengthy.

i ran into something also with the ins co deciding to drop the facility that andy is getting his rads at. meaning that instead of them paying 100% for "in network", now they want to only pay 50% for "out of network". i am fighting with the ins co. at this point since he was in the middle of treatment. our facility continued treatment without making us pay...thank God, since it was $600/wk.

i understand yalls frustration. try to keep carol on track and let her know that a few days wont hurt her. then when u talk to SSA/medicaid, give them all u have..dont let up...make them understand what is going on.

i feel for yall. hope it all works out for the best. keep us posted.


Teresa
